SAD-IRON SUPPORT.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, ELISHA T. JAERETT, a citizen of the United States,residing at Chattanooga, in the county of Hamilton and State ofTennessee, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Sad-IronSupports, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relates to an improvement in sad iron supports, which areadapted to be attached to basket grates, and it can be applied to theordinary grate of a stove.

The object of the invention is to provide a shelf which is adjustablealong the supporting means, whereby the irons can be brought in closercontact with the bed of the fire.

The invention relates to certain other novel features of constructionand combinations of parts, which will be hereinafter described andpointed out in the claim.

In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view and Fig. 2is a view of the supporting means.

A, A represent two parallel rods having hooked ends, 1, 1 and theirlower ends are connected together by means of a bar 2, which extendsoutwardly from the rods in the same direction as the hooked portions.The outer surfaces of the rods are provided with notches 3, 3. A shelf 4having openings 5, 5 is received over the rods A, A and adapted to beheld in the notches 3, 3. Braces 6, 6 are connected to the shelf, whichin turn have openings 7, 7, which pass over the rods, whereby, the shelfis held in a level position and also tending to form a rigid sup-Specification of Letters Patent.

port for the shelf. The hooked ends 1, 1 are passed over the top of thegrate basket or grate bars, and the lower portion of the rods or bar 2is adapted to rest against the grate bars thereby keeping the shelf fromresting on the grate bars, and the shelf can be adjusted to any heightor lowered to any position on the rods A, A by simply sliding it up ordown on the rods to the desired notches.

It will be seen that I have provided a very simple device which can beused for heating sad irons and the like and one which can bemanufactured at a very small cost.

It is evident that slight alterations might be made in the form andarrangement of the several parts described without departing from thespirit and scope of my invention, and hence I do not wish to limitmyself to the exact construction herein set forth.

Having fully described my invention, what I claim as new 'and desire tosecure by Letters Patent, is

A sad iron support for grates and the like, comprising hooked rods,having notches thereon, a shelf adjustably supported on the rods, saidrods connected at their lower ends and adapted to bear against the gratefor holding the shelf out of contact therewith.

In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
